In the Meantime Back in San Antonio - more peanuts!


Back in San Antonio, my family struggles with harvesting the peanuts before the peanuts become wet and start germinating. The torrential rain is unpredictable, the peanuts need picking from the roots and dried. Once dried, they are washed and bagged to sell. As part of the family I join them as soon as I get back from my Peace Corps activities - it was hard to do anything else since they worked in front of my house, I enjoyed working with them more than the studying I desperately needed for my Spanish classes. There is not enough time to do it all!!
